Books That Bring People Together

We work with children in schools and know the power of community as it plays out every day, with classmates helping one another to learn, play, and solve problems. We hunger for stories in which people come together.

These picture books represent a panorama of people working and playing together while respecting differences and honoring similarities. With each title, we have included possible discussion questions or an activity that extends the reading. Many of the activities address a range of literacy standards, which in turn offer an opportunity to collaborate with classroom teachers.
